Tag Team Finishers

I need some help with descriptions for some Tag Teams finishers.

First off it the Briscoe Brothers "Briscoe Bomb"

Then it's Los Maximos "The Spanish Fly"

And Finally The Naturals "The Natural Disaster"

Not sure about the Briscoe Bomb - My ROH DVD collection is all stuff before they started teaming up in ROH, and I started attending live shows at just about the time that they went on a long hiatus.  I'd assume that it's a double powerbomb variant, however, since the Briscoes (and Jay especially) are significantly larger than the average ROH wrestlers.

The SAT's Spanish Fly is a pretty neat move that I HAVE seen, however.  Basically, the Maximos put an opponent on the turnbuckle and climb up themselves, standing to his left and right as if about to go for a superplex.  But instead of a superplex, they jump off the turnbuckle together, executing a sort of moonsault while holding onto their opponent.  This lands their opponent on the mat between them on his back, while they land on their fronts.  Very innovative and cool looking move.  It's a pity that the Maximos are such sloppy wrestlers.

Not sure about the Natural Disaster either.  Sorry.

Thanks for the one you did know.. Now to see if I can duplicate it in TNM ;)

I also have to invent a finisher for a Sean O'Haire/Shane Douglas tag team :D

Another way to describe the Spanish Fly is if you have seen Frankie Kazarian's Flux Capacitor, it's a double version of that.

Sorry, but I haven't. I live in Sweden and I don't even get it on TV anymore so the only wrestling I get is what I see on the websites... :(

The Natural Disaster is where Andy Douglas picks the opponent up and Chase Stevens stands behind him. Douglas lays the opponent so he's holding the legs and Stevens is holding the neck. They then both drop down so Stevens hits the opponent with an Ace Crusher (I think; it could be a DDT, it's been awhile since I've seen it).
